I am taking care of setting CVS up. After researching it, I agree with Rich's assessment that CVS meets our needs. Subversion is still very young.
Have you tried to use Robin's CVS server?
Uh... I confess my ignorance again. If you tell me how to set my CVSROOT, I'll give it a try. Presumably I'd have to be added to a user list to have authority to check anything in.
How will running the source through indent affect CVS?
CVS won't care. It will look like a big change in each file that is indent'ed, however. I suggest the re-indenting be done by a) tagging source pre-indent, b) running indent on all the source, c) checking in all the reindented source before any other change is committed. It would also be good to get everyone synchronized before this is done so that you have your changes checked in before the indent is done. That way noone would have to go through a possibly painful merge.
We have discussed what version to base subsequent work on. My opinion is that we should base future work on the upcoming patch 5/6 float only version. We can keep the integer math version going as a branch until we start making changes too major to merge.
I should try to get some of the fixes in the allegro port back fit into the next patch to fix the float only sources.
I confess my ignorance yet again. :-) What's the lineage of the allegro port vs. the existing fractint/xfractint source? -- Ask me about my upcoming book on Direct3D from Addison-Wesley!
